26、 some other food sources, less research has been carried out into what plastic smells like to marine animals.But now, a study from the University of North Carolina has found that the coating of algae that naturally builds up on ocean plastics causes the rubbish to give off the scent of food.The rese
27、archers took 15 loggerhead turtles, each around five months old, and placed them in a laboratory tank. They then piped in clean water, clean plastic, turtle food, and plastic that had been immersed in the marine environment for five weeks.The turtles showed no reaction to the smell of clean water or
